Thanks .. updated, allthough the version number in my AdminCP products listing shows as 2.3?

Also, have re-enabled this excellent product and started using it again, after almost a month hiatus while trying to discover why my PayPal automated subscriptions no longer worked. The vBulletin PayPal gateway handshaking was completely broken and I had to revert to manually handling Contributing Member subscriptions. Really frustrating ..

With the kind help of vBulletin staff, we traced it down to a PAID mod developed by DragonBytes called vbMail, which completely broke the exising PayPal vBulletin gateway and subscription process we'd been using for almost 5 years successfully.

Disabling DragonBytes vbMail mod fixed the problem, then they provided a temporary patch which fixes it permanently, I hope. I understand their next production release will have that fix in it, but until it's released, I'd recommend anyone using their vbMail product and also vBulletin's PayPal gateway, disable the product immediately and contact DragonBytes.

Now a question ...

Using this mod on the front end during registration, is there any way to add an additional subscription amount to a pre-existing list of choices, that could be called an "early bird" discount?

In other words, for anyone who subscribes during the registration process (and not later), they would get a discount off the regular subscription price, in our case, to be upgraded to Contributing Member Status. In essence, it's an amount that ONLY shows in the drop down list if the subscription is being done during registration.

It might help motivate people to contribute during that process, if they see some text explaining how much the save by doing it now.. etc ...

Thoughts?

Regards,
Doug

ps: More of you guys should be sending Lancerforhire a donation. I know that not everyone can afford it, but even some token small amounts add up, which helps motivate him to continue further enhancements and development.
